The first time I laid my eyes on a bunch of Hydrangeas, I knew I just had to have them in my garden. Actually, I didn’t know that it was a Hydrangea because the assistant at the nursery told me that the plant is called Milflores. I guess some plants are called differently here in the Philippines. When I first saw those beautiful Hydrangeas, I immediately thought of a perfect spot in my garden for them.
The photo below shows that sweet spot. You won’t be able to see the flowers yet as they were in their early stages of budding when I took the photo.
A few weeks later, the flowers bloomed. Notice the pale blue colour, with a touch of yellow. Something magical is going to happen there in a few weeks’ time.
A few days later, the buds bloomed even further. It’s starting to look really good.
The photo below shows the Hydrangea in full bloom. This was taken a few days ago.
And then this morning when I went outside (which is what I do right after getting out of bed), I saw my Hydrangea in all its glory.
Have a detailed look below.
It feels wonderful to be able to have this beauty in my garden. Just having something nice to look at is very relaxing.

Wow, you do have a green thumb! I also like to plant that flower. I often see them along the highway going to Tagaytay. Good job!

Hello! Thanks for dropping by.
Matakaw sa tubig ang Milflores. Twice daily ko diligan (remember not to water the foliage ha). Tapos kung nasa paso sya, mas ideal malaking paso dahil mas marami nareretain na tubig. And nilalagyan ko ng abono once a week
Wag mo rin lagay sa place kung san sya mahihit ng direct sunlight!
